A Struggle Within

Description for back of the book:
From a broken home, crippled by abuse and addiction Montana Wilese was forced to grow up rapidly. Often left alone to make decisions, she had to be savvy enough to navigate her way through the roughest streets of Philadelphia. She learned quickly how to hold her own, as she made a name for herself. Montana wanted so desperately to be adored by her mother and loved by her father, but lacking both she turned to outsiders for guidance. Being plagued with confusion, frustration, despair and anger at such an early age, she vowed that she would make it out.
However the more she was pulled in one direction the firm grip of her environment pulled her in another. Before she knew it she had become a mastermind and in love with the life of crime, when she had promised herself to be better than her family and neighborhood. The once sweet beautiful young child was now a stranger and what lived in her was a cold calculating soul. The rage and venom was built up and so deep that there was a daily battle going on inside her mind. Montana was not poor financially, but the decisions she made would cost her gravely. Will Montana began to fully accept who she was becoming? Being taken in by some of the most ruthless murderers and drug lords, has Montana found her home? Is it in her blood? She looked in the mirror and saw the darkness of her eyes, knowing there was no turning back.
